A military parade scheduled for Trump’s birthday

Soldiers deployed to Los Angeles in the middle of protests
The performance of Trump’s Fort Bragg comes when his administration faces resistance for deploying military staff in Los Angeles to suppress escalating protests of immigration.
The President allowed 2,000 National Guard soldiers and 700 US Marines to deploy in the city, despite the opposition from California Governor Gavin Newsom.
“We will have units everywhere,” Trump said at the weekend. “We will not let our country stand out.”
California is pushing back
Gavin Newsom filed a lawsuit against federal deployment and called it unconstitutional.
News He accused Trump of “evocating riots” after the protesters blocked the main highway and lit autonomous vehicles.
Bragg name controversy resurfaces
Trump’s return to Fort Bragg revives a wider cultural battle. The base, originally named for the General Confederation, was changed to Fort Liberty after national calls for racial clearing in 2023.
Minister HegSeth, however, renewed the Bragg name and said that now honor the paratrooper of World War II instead of his namesake of the Confederation.
